Custom routing through global.asax

I've a site hosted on the server and it has a sub domain. In my Global.asax.cs I've the map route as below

routes.MapRoute(
        "Default", // Route name
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters*
        new { controller = "ShoppingCart", action = "Index", 
        id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

and when I access the site subdomain like mysite.mydomain.com , i want it to be redicted to a sub domain something like

routes.MapRoute(
        "Default", // Route name
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters*
        new { controller = "mySiteController", action = "Index", 
        id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

but I'm not able to achieve this. How do I conditionally route based on the url accessed, from the Global.asax.cs

Thanks in advance.

You could also create a custom route constraint for this scenario:

public class DomainRouteConstraint : IRouteConstraint {
    string _host;

    public DomainRouteConstraint(string host) {
        _host = host;
    }

    public bool Match(HttpContextBase httpContext, 
                          Route route, 
                          string parameterName,        
                          RouteValueDictionary values, 
                          RouteDirection routeDirection) {
        return _host.Equals(httpContext.Request.Url.Host,
                            StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase);
    }
}

Then use the constraint in your route:

routes.MapRoute(
    "Default", // Route name
    "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters*
    new { controller = "mySiteController", 
          action = "Index", 
          id = UrlParameter.Optional}, // defaults
    new DomainRouteConstraint("mysite.mydomain.com")); // constraint

or (to use multiple constraints in one route):

routes.MapRoute(
    "Default", // Route name
    "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters*
    new { controller = "mySiteController", 
          action = "Index", 
          id = UrlParameter.Optional}, // defaults
    new { ignored = DomainRouteConstraint("mysite.mydomain.com"), 
          /* add more constraints here ... */ }); // constraints

try this

routes.Add("DomainRoute", new DomainRoute( 
    "{Controller}.example.com", // Domain with parameters 
    "{action}/{id}",    // URL with parameters 
    new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }  // Parameter defaults 
))
